Thanks for the info, Here is a couple more questions (and you thought you were done) What size are these caps /res? how thick is your stencil? what type of oven are you using? what is the finish of the board? Anyway, it seems like (from a distance)t

Pavel Point: You suspect that solder paste can easily get to solder mask causing beading, because the aperture is larger than the component pad. Comment: Probably, this is incorrect. We overprint on solder mask all day long when doing paste-in-hol

Antonio, I would need to have more profile information i.e. preheat temp (hold time) as well as soaking zone (time). What is the peak temperature and how long is it held there. Also, one more thing to check, because I have seen it in the past, is

I've had this problem myself, though in using water soluables. But the process to eliminate it is still the same. There are three possible causes for this to occure. Too much humidity, to much solder, and too much heat. Are you leaving the paste

Your paste should specify a number of times it is OK for various things to happen. The two you might care about are the "Stencil Time"/"Working life", which is how long the paste can be out of the pot on your stencil while you print PCBs. The othe
